[PATCH v9 1/7] iommu: enhance IOMMU default DMA mode build options

[Zhen Lei <thunder.leizhen@huawei.com>]

First, add build option IOMMU_DEFAULT_{LAZY|STRICT}, so that we have the
opportunity to set {lazy|strict} mode as default at build time. Then put
the three config options in an choice, make people can only choose one of
the three at a time.
